MARK GAME LAW VIOLATORS

State Game Warden Jesse Mercer
states that there are six hundred
cases made against Georgians for
shooting doves in baited Helds.
From the section known as "The

more abundant, comes most of the
violations. The cases have been
made against prominent men in
nearly every instance and men who
are fully aware of the provisions of

is not to be considered derogatory

Seventeen Thousand Cars Made and
Shipped in Ono Month by That
Concern.—An Enormous
• Business.
It is always astonishing to figure
up the amount of money that each
year la expended for luxuries and
comforts by the people of the Un
ited States. The figures startle and
convince one beyond a shadow of
doubt that this not only is an age
of invention and progress, but one
of comfort and magnificence for
many. The Wall Street Journal has
figured out, in a recent issue, the
cost of production and the number
of autos shipped out by the Ford
manufacturing plant alone, and it
la a very unusual figure.
That statement 4s interesting and
la as follows:
The Ford Motor Co., easily takes
precedence as the largest American
automobile concern. It if estimat
ed that its gross income in Jan-
nary was nearly $10,000,000, oi
double the gross receipts, for in-
stance, of the Grand Trunk Rail-
way in that month and larger than
the combined income of the New
Haven and Boston & Maine roads.
'The Ford Motor Company has to
tal net assets of $25,000,000, em
ployers over 18,000 people and its
dally pay-roll is between $30,001)
and $35,000. Raw materials on
hand average $7,000,000, and every
car completed is shipped out on the
same day it is finished.
To handle its 1913 production,
the company requires 1,000,000
lamps, 800,000 wheels, 90,000 tons
of steel, hides from 400,000 cattle,
bristles from 6,000,000 hogs and
800,000 tires. In the windshields,
there are 2,000,000 square feet of
glass.
During January the Ford Com
pany built and shipped 17,601 cars
and by the end of February had
made and shipped 56,000 cars
against 17,555 cars for the same five
months of the 1912 year.
"The Ford Company has been built
from an original cash capital of
$28,000 until this year net profits
will probaly exceed $15,000,000.
Hf.iry Ford himself is said to have
more actual cash on deposit than
any single individual in the United
States. He hit the automobile in
dustry right and has made
money practically all in the last five
years."

ATLANTA PHYS TOO MUCH
For All It Buys, Believes Mayor
Woodward, Discussing the Re.
ported Four Hundred Dol
lar Graft.
Atlanta, March 21.—Mayor Wood
ward and his friends believe they
see In the charge that Fire Chief
Cummings accepted $400 from
fire apparatus agent, the key to the
enigma of why Atlanta has been
forced to |>ay more than any other
American city ror practically every
thing she has bought in recent
years.
They don't mean that they think
the fire chief has done any big
grafting; they don’t charge that he
ever got anything except this spe
cific $400; but they believe that
other city officials and employes have
been dragging down in many in
stances the same kind of petty
graft on various purchases and con
tracts, amounting to small' sums
individually, but In the aggregate
robbing the tax payers of thou
sands.
When Mayor Woodward first
went into office, he was frank to
express his suspicions that there
petty graft going on. The spe
eifle charge aganlBt the fire chief
confirms him In the belief. Other
Investigations are In progress
about to be Instituted, and other
charges. It Is believed, will follow.
In the meantime, Chief Cummings
continues to denounce as. a liar the
agent R. E. Davidson, who says he
slipped the chief the $400.
New York, March 21.—W. A.
Hall, President of a magazine com
pany, was robbed In a subway here
yesterday of forty-five thousand
dollars in negotiable securities.
The theft became known today,
through an advertisement in which
Hall offered a large reward for the
return of the papers, with "no ques
tions asked.-"
Hail was on his way from Wall
Street to the Grand Central Station
to deliver the papers, which lie had
Just endorsed. He said he remem
bered that three men had Jostled
him on the train.
SUICIDE THEORY WILL BE
MRS. APPLEBAUMS DEFENSE
Atlanta, March 21.—The first de
fense of Mrs. Applebaum will be
neither self-defense nor Insanity,
Her lawyers will endeavor to show,
by the evidence Itself, that Apple
baum committed suicide. They
claim that tbe direction of the
wound and the stains oa the gar
ments will corroborate this theory.
The detectives say the circumstan
tial evidence will accomplish the
direct opposite result, and that be
fore the trial Is over, the actual
shooting will be so firmly fixed on
Mrs. Applebaum that she will not
be able to deny it.

It will be recalled that a bill for

B. B. Brooks, who claimed the
ownership of $500 or income certifi

The formal statement of the
state Insurance commissioner Is of
a nature that will fully re-assure
all policy-holders of the Cherokee

"The policy-holders of the Chero

About eleven o'clock today the
city was visited by one of the most
severe wind storms of tbe year.
The wind was followed hy a heavy
rain, which flooded all ditches and
sewers in a short time. This fol
lowed the clear bright dawn, and
as not expected, up until ten
'clock, when threatening clouds be
gan to appear.
This Is probably the tail-end of
the great storm which visited the
central and Eastern states last
night and which is to be followed
by unprecedented cold. The weath
er bureau has sent out warnings of
a cold wave in thia section.
This is the first day of Spring,
March twenty-first being the Ver

that a storm of unusual severity
would be experienced at that time,
and very often It materializes.
Thomasville had rain ail during

religious sentiment has struck the
prisoners at the Fulton County
Tower. They all want to confess

Some ot them want to be baptized.
